(This is a Quadratic equation in the variable x).

Answer 2

Answer:

One less than the sum of square of a number  and twice the number is 0

Step-by-step explanation:

$x^2+ 2x - 1 = 0$

x represents any number. x^2 represents square of a number

2x represents twice the number

$x^2+2x$ can be written as sum of square of a number  and twice the number

$x^2+2x-1$

One less than the sum of square of a number  and twice the number

$x^2+2x-1=0$

One less than the sum of square of a number  and twice the number is 0
